THE MOTHER’S OPPORTUNITY

There is one opportunity which the mother has that she too often overlooks—the opportunity to decide deliberately and firmly ten, fifteen or twenty years in advance what kind of man or woman she intends her child to become. The opportunity is not so often overlooked in respect to outward accomplishments as it is in respect to character. When a mother decides that her daughter shall be a pianist, she not only has the girl taught gradually, year in and year out, until the little fingers become supple from exercise, but she is also careful that the growing mind is stimulated and the uncertain taste made sure by hearing good music. So it is with the boy who is destined for one of the professions; he is trained systematically with that definite purpose in view. But how few mothers take the same pains to study and train whatever special moral aptitudes their children may

have! The training of the child’s moral nature is seldom done according to a plan carefully thought out, with the definite quality of character that he is capable of attaining in mind, but it is rather allowed to be a matter of chance and good intentions. An eye for justice, however, may be cultivated as well as an eye fer architectural design; fortitude, quickness of sympathy and breadth of mind may be developed just as surely as a taste for music, and in the course of a life the possession of them will bring happiness in much larger measure than the ability to sing, write books, or build bridges. Moreover, fine traits of character, carefully fostered, help wonderfully to insure the effective use of whatever talents the child may have. There are no schools expressly for the training of these precious attributes. The mother must study the problem well and wisely, lay out the curriculum according to the

1 needs of her particular pupils, and carry through her plans by dint of infinite patience. The chief difficulty lies in the fact that the office of mother calls for so much stern unselfishness. Even in their times of wilful disobedience, children are so sweet, so bewitching that mothers are likely to be diverted from the goal far ahead, and to overlook, excuse, even to encourage funny or pretty shortcomings. That is such a tender weakness that it seems cruel to rebuke it; nevertheless, mothers must be taught to realize that their children are not toys, not delightful, animated dolls given to them for amusement, but rather raw recruits ini the greaf. battle of life, whom they must turn into well-trained soldiers. To a large extent the grown-up soldier’s under fire depends on his drilling in his baby years.—Youth’s Companion. To Become a Billionaire. Griffith, the marvelous mathematician, says to become a billionaire you would have to live 31 years and 252 days and receive a dollar each second, day and night, or live 63 years and 139 days, working 12 hours each day and receive a dollar a second for your work; travel 15,783 miles and receive a dollar each inch; sell 16.276 gallons of water and receive a dollar a drop; have 358.75 acres of clear, smooth, level tile floor and every square inch of it covered with. U. S. silver dollars; build a wall 2 miles, 263 rods and 3 yards square with brick Bx 4 inch es and receive a dollar fc’* each brick; work 40 days receiving a mill the first day, 2 mills the next, 4 the next, and so on. doubling the price each day for 40 days’ work; build a railroad around this world 25,000 miles long and receive $7,576 each foot. Swept By Tornado. Ben Davis, a small town four miles west of Indianapolis, was almost completely ruined Saturday evening when it was swept by a torjnado. Houses were unroofed, some of them carried several rods from their foundations and many of them torn to pieces. Occupants of the houses were carried and rolled along in the wreckage of houses and furniture, but all miraculously escaped, with only a few being seriously injured. Hand Painfully Injured. Henry Mathews, while coupling cars at the Cement Plant Saturday, had his right hand badly cut and bruised between the bumpers. Chemist Eldridge bathed the wound with peroxide and wrapped the hand with gauze until they could get to a surgeon to have it dressed. Dr. Ford took ten stitches in the cut. Every housewife of experience in this vicinity knows that GERBELLE FLOUR is always reliable, always uniform and always reasonable in price, and that she can get better results on baking day than from any other Brand. Ask your grocer for GERBELLE and if he does not have it, send his name to THE GOSHEN MILLING CO. Goshen, Ind. Mrs. Wm. Rothenberger entertained her Sunday School class Friday evening. Those present were Misses Savilla and Emma Strieby, Olga Beckmann, Gela Hoch and Clarence Hoch, John Snobarger and Jakie Kerns. Mrs. F. M. Ott and daughter, Miss Mary, visited at Goshen and Elkhart Thursday and Friday. Ziler Groves and wife, of Milford, were the guests of Henry Snobarger and family Sunday.

Three Business Properties Sold. Three store buildings belonging to the Rebecca Stetler estate were sold here Saturday by Mr. B. F. Deahlof Goshen, executor of the will of the deceased. The building occupied by F. L. Hoch, druggist, was bought bv Mrs. Myrtle M. Rothenberger, a niece of Mrs. Stetler, for $3,850. D. R. Wolfe, our city baker, bought the building occupied by the Seider & Burgener grocery store for $3,900. Both properties sold for several hundred dollars more than they were appraised at. The building in which Mr. Cory's barber shop is located was sold to Mrs. Bada Morris for $1,900. Last Monday afternoon, while George Jones was mowing the lawn in front of his house, some one entered his boat house, which he had left unlocked when he took the mower out, and departed with a two gallon gasoline can partly full of gasoline.

T: A GREAT COW DEMONSTRATION

When the visitor enters the National Dairy Show at Chicago, October 26th to November 4th, he will see a string of a dozen cows stanchioned on the main floor. Above each cow will be a bulletin board, upon which figures are being constantly marked up like the results of the ball games or stock quotations. This exhibit is the so-called demonstration herd, ’conducted by the dairy division of the U. S. Department of Agriculture. The demonstration herd will be just such as is found on thousands of fartns in the United States. It will be fed by experts, and every step in connection with the management will te explained. The demonstration will illustrate the most common mistakes in the felmng and management of a dairy herd, and will also attempt to show how these mistakes may be remedied. Trials will be conducted to show the relative economy of different rations and the results that follow when all the cows in a herd are fed alike. It will show why each cow should be fed according to her production. The value of record keeping will be illustrated by the actual records, the milk from each cow being weighed daily, the weights of all feeds consumed recorded and the cast of same charged to the individual cow. The amount of butter fat produced by each cow will also be kept. Various kinds of modern stable equipment will be seen in use. Perhaps no work of the dairy farm has been given less attention than the matter of proper milking. This will be amply illustrated ..by lectures, demonstrations, and actual tests. Several lectures will be given daily by men prominent in dairying. The selection of the dairy cow by her conformation will be explained. 5 Any dairy farmer, after he.has seen this government exhibit at the National Dairy Show, can apply on his own home farm the principles or methods governing the demonstration. They work for economy and efficiency, saving money in feed, yet getting more milk from your cows. The cost of the trip to Chicago is as nothing when compared with the annual saving easily possible on the average American farm. Elkhart Bottom. John Stetler spent Sunday with Morris Blue.

'Samuel Ray Bunger, only son cf Mr. and Mrs. C. H. Bunger, was born in Elkhart county July 20, 1900, and departed this life the evening of October 10,1911, aged 11 years, 2 months and 20 days. Death resulted from an accident on the street while going home from school on Tuesday noon. Roy was a bright and engaging lad, always ready with a cheery greeting and pleasant smile. That his boy friends held him in high esteem was evidenced by the fact that large numbers of them came to the home at an early hour the morning he was taken to Syracuse for burial, to look upon his face once more before he should be taken from their midst. Not only will he be missed in the home and among his school friends' but his place in the Sunday School will also be vacant. He is survived by father, mother and three sisters, Clara, Doshia and Alta; little Ruth having been called to the heavenly home a few weeks age. Brother and Sister Bunger and family will have, I am sure, the fullest sympathy and earnest prayers of all. CARD OF THANKS. We thank all friends for their acts of kindness during our sad bereavement.
